Symposium Format and Topics

The sympsoium will be conducted both online in the virtual world of Second Life, as well as in the Adobe Connect web environment, with support from LearningTimes. Sessions conducted in Second Life will be streamed into Adobe Connect during the session time.

Sessions, which will be conducted live, can incorporate a variety of visuals and rich media, and are generally about 45 minutes in length, with about one-third to one-half that time devoted to dialog with participants using the chat and audio tools of the environment.
